- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
Ok so I recently I had to do about 100 head shots of fellow employees for some system thing. Anyways the photos came out great IMO, well lit, sharp etc.. but apparently about half of the people (women) didn't "like" them so I am doing a second session to redo them and get additional people who didn't make it.
I've asked each one of them to let me know what they didn't like about their photo and we can try to work on it. The top answer was, "I just don't like my picture being taken" or "I am old" or "I just don't like how I look''.
I shot with a soft light to lessen things like wrinkles and even did post to remove zits and lighten teeth.
I feel frustrated that I can't make these "clients" happy.
p.s. this wasn't a glamour session, more like an assembly line.
